Ratings and Reviews
Pretty Good
A useful app, only thing I don’t like is that it comes up with suggestions that aren’t in this dictionary. Otherwise very useful.
British English
Whilst it is great that I can search for words in British spelling, the returned word in the main panel defaults into US English, which is not optimal. Settings panel is absolutely useless.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for sharing your feedback. We are an American-English dictionary (and so our entries are formatted with American English spellings). But we do appreciate hearing that users from around the world find our app useful! We'll be sure to share your thoughts about the British spellings, and the settings panel along to our teams.
Thank you for using our app!
Fantastic app, just which it were more like online.
As said in the title, it's a really fantastic app. It would be amazing if upgrades like the science and medical extensions could be as extensive as they are online. Maybe this could be added in the next update? Would be very useful for people who spent the $10 on the power pack to have all definitions like online. Thanks.
